Digital Governance Standards Institute | Institut des normes de gouvernance numérique’s Post

The revision of CAN/DGSI 103-2 represents a critical step in ensuring the secure and efficient exchange of health information. In a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, this update will help organizations strengthen the privacy and security of sensitive patient data while promoting interoperability across health systems.

Really great timing for Digital Governance Council | Conseil de gouvernance numérique updated 103-2 standard as we see a national ground swell and investments within the provinces and territories to give patients more access to and empowerment to share their health data. At IDENTOS Inc. we have been firm believers in the need to drive technology investments and policy to a more citizen / patient centric model to unlock value.

Health Information Management Series: 7 • Navigating Ethical Considerations in HIM The rapid advancements in healthcare technology have also brought forth a heightened need for HIM professionals to navigate the complex ethical landscape. As the custodians of sensitive patient information, HIM experts must ensure the ethical and responsible use of data, upholding the principles of privacy, confidentiality, and patient autonomy. Key ethical considerations in HIM include data governance, informed consent, algorithmic bias, and the equitable access to healthcare technologies. HIM professionals must collaborate with healthcare organizations, policymakers, and other stakeholders to develop robust data governance frameworks, implement comprehensive security measures, and proactively address the potential risks and biases inherent in the use of emerging technologies.
